Festivals, Parades and Events
From the large such as the Midsummer Watch to the relatively small cheese rolling race, festivals, events and parades make a place special. Hundreds of people participate; thousands get to watch. It can be an interesting, exciting and often bizarre experience. But whatever the reaction is these events are not easily forgotten.
The following pictures give a taste of the sort of events we deliver working closely with the local council, the community and local artists. The major events take place over a couple of days and can be many weeks in the making; the smaller events no more than a couple of hours long. All of them mark, celebrate or create special moments through the year.
Events take place throughout the year, The Cheshire West and Chester Council web site is a good place to check out future events.
